Made one. Doubled the lemon juice, and it turns out lovely. Thanks for the recipe! By the way, it seems to be a wrong community for this post. Nothing is bad about the cake!

10/10 citizens EVERYWHERE must be worried about political future. Well, maybe not worried, but certainly concerned. This is the obligation of a citizen: do fucking care about your country, you live in it! Stop caring and you get Trump. Or Putin. Or any dictator that got to power ever because citizens did not care enough.

It is good you are into chameleons. We need more people caring about animals!

That could be an issue, though given that the TV the system uses is almost as old as the laptop and is 1080p, that becomes less prominent)

Mint media centre (self.linux)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by Bloodyhog to c/linux
 

Hello world! I am seriously new to the world of linux (fleeing from windows after all the shit they are doing now), so please forgive my ignorance.

I have an old ThinkPad with Mint on it - installing it was about as far as I could get without training wheels. I'd like to use it as a media station with TV as a main screen. Where should I go to do so?

I need to operate it with an airmouse or wireless keyboard if i really have to, and my wife should be able to as well.

Some further requirements:

  • it should support a few subs we have, like Amazon, Netflix, Disney+ and maybe more in the future (I'd rather have less, but the family WANTS IT ALL!!!);

  • ideally it should switch on with that airmouse and load directly into that media shell without OS being visible.

  • the next step would be to have it access media on my old NAS and show it as a separate source. I think this should be easy enough, if the above works.

Ok, now shout at me with all your wisdom and tell me this is the wrong community to ask and I should google it all! ;)

Ah, is that the one where you had to endure teenagers trying to do the cool talk for like 15 min before you can even see a car? Uninstalled and refunded straight away.

...and then I realised that there was still one small worm I did not kill, and there is a 8m coal patch in the corner of his territory. Hooray!

Am using the big ones, of course.Do you mean the productivity modules for them? The issue is that i have only 500k of coal to start with (

Vulcanus is good, for sure. One question: is it just the gods of random being nasty, or there is always not enough coal there? Killed all the small worms around, and a small patch of coal i had at the starter location is the only one. Can import it of course, but that is not convenient.

The ship can travel without you and deliver everything you need, so not too big a deal. But still fun!
